This past week we started working on our Valentine crafts and cards. Tuesday we did some prep with heart paintings and stamping. We also made an awesome batch of "letter pretzels" where each child was able to make an edible first letter of our name that we ate for snack.

On Friday we started tying our project together and made some super cute Valentine cards for our families to bring home next week.

We will be having a little Valentine celebration this coming Tuesday where we will be baking some heart shaped muffins for snack and talking about how Valentine's day is just one day that reminds us that we should be kind and caring friends all year through. Many of you have asked what our "policy" is on Valentine giving. You are not required to bring in Valentines to hand out, but if you do, please make sure you include one for each child in our class. I will send a list through email of each child. We do suggest a "no candy" policy.

MUSIC NOTESMs. Katie will be joining us on Friday, February 16th. She is going to be exploring Frère Jacques around the world with us.
